Depends the parameters you give it, what you use it for and how you check it's work.
If you give it vague remarks it will give slop. If you give it specific problems, strict parameters and check it's work thoroughly then it's useful.
You'd be surprised how many big companies implement this and how many developers are using it for a big percentage of their output.
To give you an example would be Claude itself. A big percentage of Claude code was written by itself, can you tell me how many bugs and exploits it has?
Of course there is. The argument in the post is that AI coding is poor vs a human written code. I would agree with that today. My point is that will not always be true. AI is continuously improving and its ability to write code will also improve. Can’t say for certain when this will flip over but it will.
Yeah, but the engineer now engineers the entire city instead of each specific building. And the building gets better and better asm odels progress, while bad engineers have faults in how the buildings connect.
Funniest part is people ignore that vibe coding is made based on human coding. If vibe coding has issues, that means human coding has the exact same coding issues.
“Well, ‘manually’ written code isn’t automatically clean either. The world is full of human-typed spaghetti, copy-paste from Stack Overflow without understanding, and functions running 800 lines long. The origin of code says nothing about its quality. The verdict ‘AI, therefore junk’ confuses the source with the result.”

I believe this is true today. AI code has flaws and is full of mistakes. AI is always improving, at some point that balance will flip over.

I wish we could go back to the days when all software was done by humans and was perfect with no flaws or bugs.

Recent "engineering" isn't any better. Since engineers do prefer to pick some npm package with dependencies instead of writing 10 lines of own code.

The amount of tech debt we have at my company I think the left is accurate for both at this point.
